Public educators endorse school board candidate
Angela Hollander.
– Paso Robles Public Educators (PRPE) has announced its official endorsement of Paso Robles Joint Unified School Board candidate Angela Hollander in the April 18 special election.
The PRPE represents over 400 classroom teachers, librarians, counselors, speech therapists, independent study, home school, and adult school teachers as well as credentialed nurses.
Candidates were invited to submit responses to ten questions deemed of interest to local
educators. Topics included qualifications for the role, goals once elected, and identification of
pressing problems facing the district, as well as a request for plans to address them.
PRPE join over 100 and counting community members with diverse viewpoints in offering their public endorsement of Hollander’s candidacy because of her experience, compassion for students and families, and her strong track record of finding common ground amongst varied perspectives.
“I am proud of the many endorsements I have received,” says Hollander, “PRPE is an important voice in addition to the parents, classified staff, administrators, and community members that have endorsed my candidacy. I welcomed the opportunity to engage with the teachers because it is important to build these respectful and collaborative relationships. It is critical to work together to solve the problems facing our district today. I want everyone who believes in the value of a public education to vote for me because it is the foundation for ensuring every child reaches their full potential.”
